Civilians flee shelling in southern Lebanon KAFRA
Thousands of villagers left their homes in southern Lebanon on Wednesday as Israeli helicopters attacked a guerrilla base and rockets and artillery bombarded lines of fighters. Lebanon's defense minister said Syria agreed to help cope with the violence, but offered no details. Syria has 40,000 troops in Lebanon under a 1976 mandate, though they remain distant from south Lebanon. In Israel, 13 were treated for shock after a rocket strike on Kiryat Shemona. No Lebanese casualties were reported.
